    The left and right (audio) are out of phase so on some laptops certain frequencies are canceled out. If you put it in mono the audio cancels out completly.

    Sound doesn't work for me either. Damn! I wanted to see this after watching the Brian Cox interview.

    workaround for sound troubles. change the left-right balance on your speakers. or turn a speaker off.

    The audio has left and right channel phase reversed. They cancel each other out when panned to the center.

    Speaker fix is useless for people listening on a mobile phone which is mono. Mono devices average the two channels together so when one channel is inverted they cancel out to zero.

    Yeah one of the channels is inverted... If you're listening in mono they cancel each other out to silence.

    This makes me feel very old - I can remember Alan Clarke flying through the air at Wembley to bury Mick Jones's cross into the back of the Arsenal net. An unbelievable moment. Amazing to think that is what Jim would use time travel to go back and see! As I saw it on the day, I would go back to see how they built the Pyramids and the huge statues in Egypt which people claim today were made with copper chisels and pounding stones.

      There's one hypothesis that the flat square basin and the massive corridor to the Nile was used to channel water, used as a spirit level for stright blocks.
      Then there were 4 water lifts that were temporarily constructed out of dung, mud and animal skin; piles of reeds were tued to the blocks to get them to float to the top of the lift.
      this is just a hypothesis. I don't believe it myself, but it's certainly an entertaining one.

      @@hareecionelson5875 If you search on UA-cam there are people who have created water columns to lift blocks to demonstrate your idea. In the scale demos the idea can be made to work. In many ways seems more plausible than a gigantic ramp being constructed on the outside and then removed. Cathedrals were built with what is effectively a giant hamster wheel. The people who lived in Egypt many years ago were clearly very clever.

      @@charleswillcock3235 The next step would be to build reed life jackets for limestone blocks of the size found in the pyramids, to see if it's believable that you could get them to float.
      In fairness, the density of limestone is about 2.71 g/cm^3, so maybe a life jacket of reeds would work.

    It was messed up for me, my right ear was getting what felt like all of the sound. I followed AlienFenn's suggestion at turned my speakers to L-100 R-67 which stopped it sounding so weird to me.

    UA-cam needs to start using normalized soundtracks...! The sound is so low it's hard to hear at max volume on my iPad.... and then a commercial plays LOUDLY... awful UX!

    Its weird, I normally feel like Dara has a great connection with the audience/panel/cameras but here its like he has no idea where the camera is. Or maybe the camera crew has no idea how to capture him. I don't know.

    I love the fact that UA-cam's algorithms place a video called: "the dumbest Rich (sic) man in the world" on the top of the list of related video suggestions. How does a video of a guy driving an open Lamborghini in the pouring rain relate to Jim Al-Kahlili or Dara O'Briain!?!

    A lot of Irish people do that, just because we talk so quickly, we tend to not formulate our sentences before we say them, and also because it's just a habit I guess.
